The only reason I went Intel, is because Asus put a motherboard on sale for half price that happens to meet my apparently very strange requirements for an enthusiast board for my editing desktop. I had an X570 MSI board, but was using Asus software for my mouse pad, Logitech for my KB&M, Corsair for my headset, NZXT for my AIO, Lian Li software for the Unifans on my custom GPU loop, and MSI software for the rest of the RGB and motherboard stuff. The Lian Li app didn't like playing nicely with my motherboard, and had glitches for over a year and a half until they finally got things running nicely, but having so many programs running in the background was driving me nuts. So a half price motherboard from AMD would've been preferred, but I jumped on it because I had to redo my GPU loop anyways.
TLDR: I went Intel because of many factors, but you can't lose with either, and the 7800 AMD or 13700 Intel CPUs will be phenomenal gaming CPUs for years. Look at benchmarks to see if either favors more games on your list than the other. Look for killer deals on motherboards. I saved $300 on mine. AMD is ahead right now, but not $300 ahead. That kind of discount is worth taking advantage of if you find one.

Good luck and enjoy your new build!!
